I went through the thread and replied before I saw you posted the first one! The third one I asked the guy a couple question on youtube and he made the frame himself. He’s using 16inch bike wheels, 35 km/h top speed and 25km range.
This is the build video
The guy In the video appears to be using a 4.xx single vesc, along with a 13s pack!? Those 16 inch tires can’t be easy to push…
Surprised he didn’t go with something else. Coolio build doe
Yeah I guess 35 km/h isn’t really that fast so the gearing must be quite a low ratio, but how does that make it not have any issues with voltage spikes? Not many people chance 13s on even some of the better escs out now.
I think the vesc hardware can handle 13s at low power not recommended but can be done. Dont quote me on that tho. And his motor is only 500w so not really powerful.
The 6396 has almost the same stator size as the 6380 with the addition of a large bearing at the open end of the can. It should be more durable but is limited on RPM.
It was tough working from home for two months, but we secured $75k in investment, got a two-person office in Long Beach, and I hired Sawyer Reynolds @novamuto. It definitely set us back about two months, but now we’re chugging away. We’ve been testing the Stormcore 100S with the different motors in the past few days.
This is definitely still on the table! We do have funding now, and are getting closer to production. Doing a lot of testing with the different VESC & motor options.
